A 10-year-old girl is listed in good condition at Children's Hospital in Pittsburgh after being bitten by a mountain lion in Columbiana County

As a business owner, tax payer, elected official, independent thinker and someone who can read AND use Google, I admit that I am VERY skeptical when the government warns me about anything.

Government often causes more problems than they solve, and it's in their own best interests (power, taxes, job security, etc.) to have a crisis du jour to keep people alarmed, afraid and looking for a government solution. Anyone remember Alar? DDT? Acid Rain, Ozone Hole? Coffee? The list is long because fearful people are much more malleable. Liberals, aka Marxists, statists, socialists, communists, progressives, democrats crave control over every aspect of your life, so they must find new ways to create fear and dissension amongst the people to further their insatiable lust for power and their devious, subversive efforts to enrich themselves and control you (think convenient liar Spotted Al Gore).

The Devil in the Milk

Dr. Thomas Cowan on how the A1 - A2 factor explains why even raw milk sometimes does not seem to be enough of an improvement over "store-bought"

"I have been involved in thinking about the medicinal aspects of cow's milk virtually my entire career. As one four-year-old child pointed out to me many years ago, "Mommy, I know why he always talks about milk, his name is Cow-an." So, I guess this milk "obsession" is no surprise. The obsession started in earnest about 25 years ago when I read the book The Milk of Human Kindness Is Not Pasteurized by maverick physician William Campbell Douglass, MD. This was one of the most influential books I have ever read...

Too Close to Home

South Dakota Magazine

March 9, 2009

A rural Hermosa resident somehow stayed calm enough to grab his camera after spotting this mountain lion outside his home.

I imagine most people would have been in shock after seeing such a huge lion so close to home. Barb Roseland sent us this photo after seeing our March newsletter, which featured a quiz on mountain lions.

Collect a rock, lose your car

World Net Daily

February 22, 2009

WASHINGTON -- A land management bill that swept through the U.S. Senate last month and is headed for a House vote this week punishes rock collectors and paleontologists with arrest and expropriation of their cars and other equipment...

In the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009, a "forfeiture" provision would let the government confiscate "all vehicles and equipment of any person" who digs up or removes a rock or a bone from federal land that meets the bill's broad definition of "paleontological resource," says a report by Jon Berlau of the Competitive Enterprise Institute.
